Don Carlos and Giovanni - Thorvald Steen

Translated from the Norwegian by James Anderson. In the months of September and October 1833 a young Englishman known as Don Carlos finds himself in Buenos Aires. There he meets a casual labourer, Giovanni Graciani, from Genoa, Italy. These two short penetrating novels recount Giovanni's abandonment of faith, the political upheavals and bloody events of Argentine history, and his encounter with the man he calls Don Carlos - who in reality is Charles Robert Darwin, on a voyage that will change forever the way man perceives his world.
